Slowdive Officially Reunite

Earlier this month, reunion rumours started swirling when defunct shoegaze act Slowdive launched an official Twitter account and began a day-by-day countdown. Now, to the surprise of almost no one, they have announced that they are reuniting.

Today (January 28), the aforementioned countdown culminated in the news that Slowdive will perform at Barcelona's newly announced Primavera Sound festival, which runs from May 29 to 31.

While this is currently the only confirmed show, more reunion gigs will presumably be announced in due course, since the band tweeted, "More info and announcements to follow."
